The action of Border-Gavaskar Trophy is about to begin and once again two of the best cricket teams in the world are going to clash on Australian soil. In the long history of Border-Gavaskar Trophy (BGT), great batsmen like Sachin Tendulkar, Ricky Ponting, Virat Kohli, Matthew Hayden, Steve Smith have scored a lot of runs. There are many records in the name of these batsmen who have scored many centuries and double centuries in this trophy. Despite this, there is also a record which is not in the name of such greats, but in the name of a player whose status is much lower than them.

This record is the most runs scored in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy without being out on 0 and this batsman is- Simon Katich.

Katich on top, who after him?

Yes, this unique record is not in the names of the legendary batsmen of India and Australia, who together have scored around 200 Test centuries. These batsmen have also scored thousands of runs in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy and created many records. Still, this special record is in the name of former left-handed batsman Katich. Simon Katich, who played 56 Test matches for Australia, scored 4188 runs at a strong average of 45, which included 10 centuries and 25 half-centuries.

He was out without opening the account only 4 times in his entire career but this never happened to him in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.

In this series played between India and Australia, Katich holds the record of scoring the most runs without being out on 0. Katich played 14 test matches against India in BGT, in which he scored 1088 runs in 26 innings and in these 26 innings he never
Was not out on 'Duck', which is a record in BGT. His average in these 14 Tests was 47.30, which included 2 centuries and 6 half-centuries. After Katich, Australia's Marnus Labuschagne is at second place, who has scored 708 runs in 9 tests.

From India, this record is in the name of star wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant, who has scored 624 runs in 7 test matches without being out on 0.

Will Labuschagne-Pant maintain the record?

Of these, Labuschagne and Pant will be seen in this series. In such a situation, an eye will be kept on whether these two star batsmen will be able to maintain their record. This series of 5 test matches is going to start from November 22 on the pitch of Optus Cricket Stadium in Perth, which is considered to be the fastest in the world.

Apart from these two, in this series once again the eyes will be on batsmen like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Steve Smith, who are not in good form at the moment and this series will be very important for them.
